Yesterday they let Lavar Arrington go, this opens a need at LB.

Why Briggs?

He and Antonio Pierce both played LB here at the University of Arizona and are good friends. Pierce was his mentor here.

Chicago may franchise Briggs and make this null and void, but I think the Giants will look at this.

Word out of Chicago is Briggs is getting tagged if they can't resign him. So if this is true, speculation is moot...

EDIT: hah maybe I should finish reading you post! ;)

That is what they are saying out here on the Sacramento sports radio shows. They think that the Giants are going after Lance Briggs and maybe Asante Samuel.

Wow, that could be (2) #1s and (2) #3 draft choices! (As thats what you give up if you sign someone who has been tagged with the franchise tag)

Good job looking past everything to focus on one remark. Aces up.

I was being very sarcastic. I gave 2 reasons why I was speculating this and he felt he had to tell me how good Briggs is. As if I had no clue even though he played right here where I live.

Ha, question. Since Jerry is back in charge of drafting would it be better to sign a player that has been franchise tagged and give up a #1 and #3 draft choice? It would be like trading for Adalius Thomas, Asante Samuel, or Dwight Freeney for a #1 and #3 draft choice.

Didn't mean to make you cry, Hos. I was only pointing out that Briggs will draw interest from a lot of teams if he hits the open market.


Don't get your panties in a bunch, Martha.

Oh brother. Yeah, I never thought anyone would want a Pro Bowl LB. Wow.

There, my panties are all unbunched in amazement at this incredible information. I mean I just flat out unclenched at this.

I mean info about their friendship dating back to college just pales in comparison to that. I stand humbled an in utter shame. Thank you for this. Your generosity knows no limits.
